Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 399 Assassin
Yue Ruoshui pondered for a moment before realizing what was happening.

"Jinjin, you already guessed it?" Yue Ruoshui looked at Shen Youqing, who was eating with her head down. "Do you know what method Jun Su will use to get in?"

"More or less." Shen Youqing looked up and glanced around. Seeing An Yarou guarding the door, he looked away and said, "Jun Su has an inside man in the cultivation world. He won't let the Chaos Pearl fall into the cultivation world."

The situation on the other side of the Guardian Realm cannot be kept secret.

Jun Su might not be able to guess it was him for a while, but he would attribute the cause to the Chaos Pearl. In order to ensure that the Guardian Realm could be completely shattered, he would not allow the cultivation world to obtain the Chaos Pearl.

only……

Shen Youqing, who was about to eat, smiled slightly, his eyes full of playful amusement.

Having obtained the Chaos Pearl, Shen Qiuluo would certainly not hand it over.

If she wants to protect the Chaos Pearl, she either has to rely on Jiang Chenying and his group of five, or she has to cooperate with the demonic cultivators.

She just hopes Xie Changyan will appear soon; she's going to use her beauty to seduce him!
“He could have chosen not to come, but I will.” Shen Youqing looked up. “So he will definitely come.”

This might be Jun Su's only chance to capture her, and he won't miss it.

Jiang Hanying gazed quietly at Shen Youqing.

"I'll go check it out later and see if I can finish him off."

A cool and calm voice rang out, and before the words were finished, the hand holding chopsticks picked up the plum ribs.

?

Jiang Hanying and Yue Ruoshui both widened their eyes.

Her nonchalant tone made it sound like she was just stating what to eat tomorrow.

Even if the Demon Lord is sickly now, he will never let himself be slaughtered. Is that appropriate?

"With my third brother in the military camp, and the city lord of Qingmeng City dead, Qingmeng City is without a master, which is a perfect opportunity to take advantage of the situation," Shen Youqing said unhurriedly.

"..." Yue Ruoshui didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

Jiang Hanying also wore a complicated expression.

It was planned in advance!
"Has the banquet ended?" Shen Youqing asked.

Jiang Hanying shook her head. "No, but it'll be over soon."

Shen Youqing responded and then ate faster.

After the banquet, Jun Su and several guards headed towards the South Garden.

After passing through the central garden, the surrounding light became much dimmer.

"call out--"

An arrow pierced the air, and the guards quickly stepped forward and drew their swords to block it.

The immense force caused the guard's arm to go numb.

The next second, a shadowy figure, almost blending into the night, suddenly appeared on his face, a blade gleaming coldly.

Blood splattered and dissolved into the darkness, the stench of blood carried away by the evening breeze.

The figure shrouded in night clothes was so indistinguishable in gender that Jun Su could not tell at a glance.

He retreated behind several guards, his cool tone revealing neither joy nor anger, "You really are..."

Shen Youqing didn't waste any words; his actions were swift and ruthless.

Jun Su didn't bring many guards, and they couldn't withstand more than a few moves from Shen Youqing.

But the commotion here was quite loud, and soon, the footsteps of Jiang's guards could be heard not far away.

Shen Youqing had no intention of lingering in the fight; he turned and leaped onto the roof, disappearing into the darkness.

"Fire!"

"Extinguishing!"

……

Jiang Chenying and Yue Xunzhu, who had rushed over, looked at the burning Nanyuan not far away with identical solemn and serious expressions.

"Patriarch Jiang," Jun Su said, then coughed twice, covering his mouth, "your Jiang family isn't very safe."

The captain of the guards said to Jiang Chenying, "Master, Lord Jun was just assassinated!"

?

With a slight thought, Yue Xunzhu knew who had done it.

Jinjin really does great things quietly!
"Have you caught the assassin?" Jiang Chenying asked in a cold voice.

The captain of the guards replied, "We didn't see the assassin when we arrived." "Patriarch Jiang, the assassin escaped from that direction. She seemed very familiar with the Jiang family." Jun Su sighed helplessly after speaking, "Patriarch Jiang, why don't we sit down and talk things over? Why the rush?"

"My Jiang family disdains to do such things," Jiang Chenying said coldly, then turned to the butler and said, "Search."

The butler responded.

"Why don't we let Lord Jun go to the West Garden?" Yue Xunzhu's gentle voice rang out. "The West Garden is quiet and secluded, just right for Lord Jun to live in."

Jiang Chenying glanced at Yue Xunzhu and nodded.

"I'll take care of it," Yue Xunzhu said. "It seems my sister-in-law needs to speak with my brother. I'll handle things here."

Jiang Chenying had complete confidence in Yue Xunzhu, so he responded and left.

Being able to maintain a semblance of politeness with the Demon Lord was already his limit; as for expecting a pleasant face, that was out of the question.

The next day.

When Shen Youqing and Yue Xunzhu slowly walked to the flower hall, Jiang Chenying and the others had already arrived.

After the maid left, Lin Jinyao turned to Shen Youqing and asked in a low voice, "Jun Su was assassinated last night. It wasn't you who did it, was it?"

Last night, she was called to guard the study in the dark to prevent mice from sneaking in.

I never expected that Jun Su would be assassinated!

It’s really great!

Shen Youqing tilted his head slightly, expressing his confusion.

Yue Ruoshui and Jiang Hanying lowered their heads and drank their tea in a tacit understanding.

"The steward and guards searched all night, and the assassin eventually fled to the West Garden. Currently, only Shen Qiuluo lives there," Wei Ningguang's cold voice rang out.

Jiang Chenying looked at Shen Youqing's calm expression and said with certainty, "You did it."

"Evidence." Shen Youqing held out his hand.

Jiang Chenying didn't bother to look at her. "So you're just going to push it onto Shen Qiuluo like that?"

Shen Youqing didn't say anything, but simply took the pearl hairpin off her head and threw it over.

Jiang Chenying caught it quickly, preventing the hairpin from falling into the porridge bowl.

"Next time, we can have them pass it on." Jiang Chenying tucked the hairpin into her sleeve.

It looks too ordinary; I don't know if it can fool Shen Qiuluo.

Let's lie first and talk later.

Shen Youqing asked calmly, "Is it possible to find Xie Changyan?"

"What are you doing?" Jiang Chenying always felt that Shen Youqing didn't want to be a human being anymore.

Shen Youqing raised an eyebrow slightly, "A honey trap."

Jiang Chenying: ...

It doesn't seem like it's impossible. We can just make do with the second junior brother.

Wei Ningguang and the others knew that Shen Youqing and Jiang Chenying were speaking in riddles, but based on their trust in the two, they didn't ask.

"This matter needs an explanation. Just say that the assassin disappeared in the West Garden and his whereabouts are unknown." Yue Xunzhu said slowly.

Wei Ningguang took a couple of sips of porridge. "Third sister-in-law, fourth sister, you two shouldn't just sit idly by either, come and help me."

She was incredibly busy, attending banquets and flower parties alike!
Yue Ruoshui and Jiang Hanying nodded.

"The latest orders have come down from above, instructing my sister and me to assassinate the Second Young Master." Jiang Xuan'an finished speaking, his gaze falling on Shen Youqing.

Needless to say, they came for Shen Youqing.

"Why kill my second brother instead of me?" Jiang Hanying looked at Yue Xunzhu and said with some confusion, "But compared to my second brother, I am obviously easier to kill."

Her identity is the fourth young lady of the Jiang family. The fourth young lady holds a certain amount of money and power. If Qingmeng City wants to cause internal strife, the best solution is to kill the fourth young lady, rather than killing the second young master.

"They're after me," Shen Youqing's cold voice rang out.

Seeing Shen Youqing's worried look, Yue Xunzhu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will act cautiously."

Don't forget, the Yue family's healers train their bodies.

Jiang Hanying was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what she meant, she felt it was absurd. "He's your brother."

Is Jun Su so insane that he even targets Shen Youqing's brother?
This is simply...

Jiang Hanying shook her head repeatedly.

"You'll get used to it," Shen Youqing said calmly.
